Doc Shadow Posted January 29, 2019 Report Share Posted January 29, 2019 Ah yes, February, the month of love. Or so the florist industry would have you believe. But often the path of true love is a difficult one. Fraught with many pitfalls, roadblocks, and heartache. Particularly if you're a superhero. From lovers who turn out to be villains, to being dismembered and stuffed into a refrigerator, to editorial interference often your stalwart, upright supers just can't seem to catch a break romantically. And doubly so if your name is Parker! That's the theme of our draft this month. True love and the rocky road to get there. Your first choice will be a heroic Protagonist, this is the guy/girl whose love life sucks. This must be your first pick. Although the idea for this draft came mostly from supers, plenty of other heroes have lousy love lives so you may choose from any professionally produced fictional hero for this all important pick. After picking your protagonist, you will choose (in no particular order): 3 ex-lovers, 3 complications, 2 options and finally your protagonist's True Love. In this draft Options are used to draft more complications or more ex-lovers. All picks may be drafted twice except the Protagonist. True Loves can be drafted by another Owner, but only as an ex-lover. If you have any questions please ask, and I'll do my best to answer them. The Draft will begin on the 4th of February. Picks are earned at 5 pm EST. One pick per day. Picks can be saved to make a double or even triple pick later on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pariah Posted January 29, 2019 Report Share Posted January 29, 2019 ...and finally your protagonist's True Love. Is this to be interpreted literally? In other words, is the True Love the final pick that you make? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doc Shadow Posted January 29, 2019 Author Report Share Posted January 29, 2019 No. Although your Protagonist must be your first pick, the rest may be made in any order you choose. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doc Shadow Posted January 31, 2019 Author Report Share Posted January 31, 2019 I'm sorry guys but your protagonist must be a published, fictional hero. Although the idea of making the protagonist ourselves is interesting. Maybe next year, assuming this one goes well. Cancer 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
